What It's Really Like to Be a Member of the Royal Guard

- čas přidán 4. 05. 2024
- The Royal Guards have become one of the sights and symbols of London and the UK. There are many myths and famous facts connected with their job and rules: like, for example, that they aren't allowed to talk. Turns out, it's possible, but only in very specific circumstances: if people get too close to them or become aggressive. You'll also never see one of them smiling for a selfie as they're not even allowed to chuckle! And it was rumored that if they do, they'll receive a fine of about $200.

3:40 The reason we took them up is because the grenadiers defeated the French at Waterloo and wore their hats as a way to remember it! Also the chinstraps don’t serve much of a purpose anymore, they were to protect soldiers faces from cavalry sabres.
They are now King's guard
True Well done for remembering that the queen died witch is kinda of sad the queen died
Bingo
Um… “passed away”?@@Rosie_Rose401
Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen
fanta
Amen
Thanks bud
@Mohd Aaqib Hamdule bot love to copy my original comment over and over again
Amen.
It’s actually the KING’S guard now…..
Lol
At Buckingham Palace, out on the lawn green is the waterloo vase.
Wellington's Victory at the Battle in 1815.
The queen has now died
There are times ,I feel sorry for those guards!🇺🇲❤️🇬🇧
Same
Same
I always feel bad for them.. it’s inhumane. No bathroom breaks, no water break, no chair to take a min rest. 😏
Imagine if they accidentally uses the bathroom on themself.🤣
Even after they train for many hours a day, it still hurts
Maybe that’s why they faint?
@@lucyarem they are supposed to do that
Bots are taking over
3:57 Incorrect, the natural hats are repellent. When they tried to switch to synthetic fur however, it did get heavier
The King's Guards 😀
I think the head guard is made for that, in case someone drops down flat on floor, the head is saved!
Life is mostly odd.
Yeah 😅
@5:25 "Since a full day of work can last over 24 hours"
Hmmm....
Nothing but a clowns 🤦♂️ royal guard....... Sent them Spetsnaz and they will cry like a babies 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They fought ( Welsh Guards)in the Falklands, and we all know how that ended for Argentina .
Go to Wales and say your comment, and see what happens , Boyo .
You know nothing about the guards then 😂
Salute to all of you…. My utmost respect as well.
Its the Kings guard.
WE KNOW!!!!!
It's really hard for them.
Amazing
Extrememley hot outside meanwhile in australia
Most of the information in this video is incorrect. For example, the Grenadier Guards have a WHITE plume on left side of the bearskin, and, there are only FIVE regiments that wear the bearskin - The Grenadiers, The Coldstream, The Irish, The Scots and The Welsh. Please double check the information you already have.
That's not most but I see that your talking about.
btw the bearskins cost £1000
love the content
@BIGHT LIGHT how do you kno all of this¿?
Incorrect. Their hats weigh approximately 0.7 kilograms / 1.5 lb.... NOT the NINE (9) pounds stated in the video.
Wolf wolf videos videos are so much fun and I love you so much and I love you so
I don't think Bright Side has been updated
He said "The Queen" and it's now "The King"
The video is prerecorded.
@@danielledewitt1 that makes sense
My dad was a royals guard 💂♂️
Pathetic ancient rituals , It's 2022 , not 1822 .
Fun fact an Executive office and higher have a little bit smaller of a hat
*Can we Just believe how this guy never ever disappoint us*
Yeah!

@@kassis2002 hey, we brothers? i do the same thing as you.
How they eat?
Kings guards actually.
Nice video
So the guards actually don’t stay in the same place when it rains they stand inside there sentry box
Its a really Difficult job life to be a British Army Royal Foot Guard.
Not easy atoll.
It's - MAKE WAY OF THE KINGS QUARDS!
0:00 - Hi BS. 👋 8:10 - 604th like from me. 👍 Cheers.
The Grenadier guards have a white plum
If they are never allowed to move or talk much then obviously people could just get right by them. You’d think guards would be allowed to move freely. Especially hauling tail if anyone runs away from them.
They are allowed to move and speak but ONLY when someone is getting top close to them or the palace
they are no longer the queens guards they are now the kings guards
Imagine.. your mom just died and your working as a (kings) guard now and you arent allowed to show any emotion
They chose that Job, its not Like they didint know in what they are going into
Every job where you face people require you to maintain a professional appearance, regardless of your emotions
When the guards fall on the ground face first they can loss their teeth and often will get a broken nose.
90000:35 was the best part
Crazy
King guard now
Hey everyone

The near of The Guards
🎃Trick or Treat!🎃

@@DeltaWarrior642 thx im bad at spelling
So what happened if a kid wanted to join the British guards
What if they need to eat
They have 2 hours on duty 4 hours off.
If this is real. Modern day slavery. N it should be stopped. Not giving them loo breaks. It's terrible. N they stand continuously it's sad.
Yeah
???
Why do u type like that what do u even mean
Thank You Very interesting Not sei different from our service members♥️♥️🕊️🕊️🕊️✨
💥For them is an honor to be hand-picked. They never see themselves as slaves, victims, or losers. They resemble strength and power, and they know it.💥
Wait, didn’t the Queen die in September?
Sadly yes.
It in the uk 🇬🇧
Hi

Why are you talking about the queen we know she passed in September 😢.talk about the king
Probably recorded before

Prerecorded video.
NAHH MAN MY COUSIN JUST SAID SKILL ISSUES
*kings royal guard
This aged fast, King's guard now.
👍🏻
No thanks!
Hard
Where do the guards sleep?
Depends on what duty and where your stationed. on ceremonial duties, (at Buckingham palace) you are placed in the barracks beside the palace. If not you go into Wellington barracks. But there’s much more barracks
I’ve always wanted to become a Queens guard
*King*
I’m actually a boy and I’m just using my mom’s account
I can’t believe it I just became a Queens guard
Congratulations
Thank you

👋 Hey
This should be illegal 😡 no breaks really!!! 😭😭
They were trained and signed up for it
They do. They get 2 hours on and 4 hours off
@@Princeton5 oh ok
The first woman to be in the British army did not look like a British army it looks like a German army person and say goodbye to one of the guards if they die of heat and do not just fans
Plz they need to change there rights
They’e fine. Don’t act like they’re slaves. They chose this job knowing what was going to happen.
